Coming Clean

After stonewalling for about a day, John Kerry has released his military records and they are now availble on his web site. The press reaction to the recently rleased documents appears to be very positive. The Associated Press' item on Kerry's records is titled Kerry Highly Praised in Military Records and its opening paragraph reads:

Records of John Kerry's Vietnam War service released Wednesday show a highly praised naval officer who volunteered for a dangerous assignment and at one point was "unofficially credited with 20 enemy killed in action."

You really couldn't ask for better coverage, especially since these biographical stories are probably better for a candidate trying to introduce themselves to the public.
